Please refer Sec 8 (4) of CST Act 1956 and Rule 12 (1) of CST Rules 1957.

A manufacturer can issue Form C in respect of goods to be used in manufacturing or processing.

If such manufacturers finished goods is exempted, CST paid is paid only.

You want to avoid 12.5% state VAT by replacing CST purchase therefor. Generally all state VAT have EST concept, that is, Every Sales Taxed. Thus please doubly check whether your FG is exempt or not.
